Kapitel 137: Unexpected Naval Skirmish

In the middle of the night, two European ships attacked an Omani sambuk ship. Despite the darkness, the sambuk's distinctive features made it unmistakably part of the Omani naval forces, while the exact identity of the European ships remained unclear.

The crew of the Safavid fleet watched with bated breath from a safe distance as the battle unfolded.

The identity of the European ships was hard to determine, but the sambuk's features made it clear it was part of the Omani fleet. The vast expanse of sea trembled with the roar of cannon fire.

The sambuk appeared to be 50-80 feet long (15-24 meters), a narrow ship with a single mast and lateen sails. Known for its agility, it found itself unable to maneuver as it was caught in the bombardment.
